Lethbridge Spring Open ID: Statistical Analysis
April 29, 2023
On Thursday, April 27th, PBR Alberta hosted its 6th showcase of the season with the Lethbridge Spring Open ID at Prairie Baseball Academy. The event gave our staff a look at roughly 25 players in the 2023 - 2027 classes from the Lethbridge and surrounding areas.
Open showcases such as this one allow our staff to see players from several different classes which will help formulate our update rankings. They also serve as identifiers for some of PBR's marquee events that Western Canada attends, including the Future Games, Jr. Future Games, West Coast Games and more.
All players ran through a pro-style workout which included a 60-yard dash, defensive evaluation and velocities from all positions, as well as batting practice for hitters and bullpens for the arms.
Below, we begin our post-event coverage with a look at the top metrics in all the different areas of the showcase.
